Ammonium nitrate, NH4NO3\text{NH}_4\text{NO}_3NH4NO3, is a common fertiliser.
It is made by reacting ammonia, NH3\text{NH}_3NH3, with nitric acid, HNO3\text{HNO}_3HNO3:
NH3+HNO3→NH4NO3 \text{NH}_3 + \text{HNO}_3 \rightarrow \text{NH}_4\text{NO}_3 NH3+HNO3→NH4NO3Calculate the mass of ammonium nitrate that can be made from 225 tonnes225\text{ tonnes}225 tonnes of nitric acid.
